Hamas reports Israeli military withdrawal from Gaza's Netzarim corridor

Hamas announced that the Israeli military has withdrawn from the Netzarim corridor in Gaza, a move expected under the ongoing ceasefire. An Israeli security source confirmed the withdrawal, which allows more Palestinians to return to their homes in northern Gaza. The corridor had been occupied by Israeli forces for over 15 months, isolating northern communities. Following the withdrawal, crowds of people and vehicles were seen moving through the area, while Hamas increased its presence to assert control. Indirect negotiations for the next phase of the ceasefire are anticipated to begin soon. Despite the ceasefire, reports indicate that Israeli gunfire resulted in the deaths of four Palestinians on Sunday, raising concerns about ongoing violence.
